What was the LLoyd vs ARE arguement about at the end of the game?

No. ARE was just calmimg him down. Lloyd is a hot head and Gibbs gave him a stern talking to today from what I heard.

Yeah, it could get interesting

Lloyd probably won't be around for the 2007 season. He's just not cutting it, and Gibbs isn't going to put up with his antics any longer. Another terrible personnel move by the Skins.

He's reminding me of Gary Clark. I mean the production isn't there yet, but Clark was always "emotional" and probably made Gibbs age 10 years every day

That's the bottom line. Production. Clark was one tough as nails SOB who produced. You could count on him week in and week out. Sore hamstring or not he was going to be out there. So you put up with his antics as long as he does his thing on Sun. LLoyd? WTF has he done for anyone to tolerate his tantrums?

[RobH4413]

Lloyd has played mediocre. He has show alot of potential, and I think he's a better WR than ARE.

I am dissappointed with the lack of production from our receiving corps as a whole. I don't, however, think change needs to be made. Let them stick together and gel.

Good idea hess!

Unfortunately, we have to make it work with Lloyd. If we cut Lloyd and Arch then we're out $20M in cap space. Sorry, it ain't going to happen. We can put him on the inactive list, but he's going to be on the roster.

I bet we take our medicine and cut him loose. I know it will kill financially, but his being around ultimately will do more damage.

I think people are really blowing up this Lloyd stuff into a lot more than it really is.

agree. it's nice to see someone with a little fire in my opinion. i think it's been a frustrating season overall. i know it has for me.

I agree. Its not that i want the player making stupid penalties but the guy got mad b/c of the game and the lack of anything resembling a hurry up offense at the end of the game. It's kind of nice to see someone get mad at our play. Of course, if it b/comes a habit then its a problem.

He was supposed to be on redskins radio last night but i didn't catch it.

FWIW, our punter took his helmet off during the game too.

there is nothing wrong with having some passion on the field. but... there are certain ways that things are done. I'm sure after talking to Gibbs this will be the end of the tantrums. i want Lloyd back. and with the cap in place, its almost guaranteed he will return

Remember the 49er fans posting here right after we signed him? It wasn't just them, the SF media reported that Loyd didn't get along w/some of his vet teamates & they didn't think he took the game seriously enough.
Publicly, he's been a good guy here, but I've often wondered what his deal is on & off the field. I want to see him do well of course, but minute for minute James Thrash has outplayed him both in blocking & recieving, plus he plays special teams. I sure hope Loyd is about to unleash his potential, but as of yet I don't see him working that hard in his routes, coming back to the qb, etc.

Thrash has totally outplayed him. Gibbs freaked out ( just like the Duckett trade) becsue the WR's were hurt at the end of last year. Fine. Bring in one guy. But two? Personally I would have just brough in ARE and drafted a guy in the 3rd or 4th round. Those 3rd and 4th round guys are like gold. They play teams, add depth and are kind against the cap.
